Marty Sharpe16:45, May 24 2021 Mark Dwyer/Stuff A Holden Clubsport, possibly something like this one, was at the centre of a nasty dispute. (File photo – not the car in question) Disputed ownership of a car led to the violent assault on two people and an 11-year jail sentence for Napier man Thomas Milligan. In a recently released decision Milligan, 47, has been unsuccessful in appealing the length of his sentence, with Justice Neil Campbell ruling the sentence was appropriate. A man and woman came into possession of Milligan's car, a Holden ClubSport of unspecified vintage in early 2017. They believed he had given it to them as payment for money that Milligan had been given.
